THANK. YOU.
Spent an entire day sorting through videos on this topic, nothing but bad softwares that don't work/paywalls right at the end/methods that require flash drives, you have put an end to this very annoying process I sincerely thank you

Great presentation! Have done numerous drive upgrades and came across this when looking for freeware programs to migrate same machine. Already GPT so tried this method and was happy with the amount of time to perform! Also liked the ability to migrate to smaller drive with enough space to contain partitions.
Well awesome my friend, so very happy you enjoyed it and I am happy I could help you discover this. Actually another friend to the channel pointed it out to me after seeing that Macrium went to the trial mode, so I wanted to try to help as much as possible and I tried it and it worked, so I wanted to bring it to you and I am so VERY happy I could. Thank you as well for your kind words and support, it means the world to me.
Sick thanks!!!! Love u mate uve been my fav youtuber when it comes to upgrading or updating softwares!!!
awesome but, so very happy you enjoyed it and I thank you so much for your support, it means the world to me.
Great video brother!
Thanks brother, very happy you enjoyed it.
Great info on the MBR and GPT requirements in the forefront.
On a previous video I made, I was teaching people how to clone... but I forgot completely about MBR and GPT so while it worked for most, some had bluescreens because of that and it took me a while to realize it, so since then I make sure to state it in all these cloning videos.
That’s your instructions were awesome the program stills works thank you

How can you read my mind? 😱😱😱 I was currently in need of it, trying to find a good alternative for minidisk partition tool and you uploaded an entire vid of cloning
Haha, thanks bud, this was last weeks video, this weeks isn't doing so well, I thought it would since a lot of people ask. Yeah this video however, I've done 2 others but each time after a period of time, the software stops become free, so hopefully this will stay free. So very happy you enjoyed it.
As always, thanks for another great video. I bought the Sabrent cloner and a bigger SSD. Now I just need to do it. I'm thinking about making a clone in MBR first, "just in case". Then change the original to GPT, change to UEFI and verify it still boots. If all is good, do the clone again in GPT. (original SSD is 120gb, new SSD is 500gb)
I dont suggest leaving it in mbr, like I showed you, it worked fine, ive had many comments from people with MBR failing, but they haven't responded once I asked for more info and thanks so much for your kind words and support my friend, it means the world to me.
@@ThisBytesForYou Ok, with that, I'll give it a go! Thanks!
Always a pleasure my friend, let me know how it goes for you.
Another free backup/Clone software that recently showed up is Hasleo Backup Suite. I haven't tried it yet but read an article about it that talked it up pretty good.
I saw that a few months back (maybe 2) but it didn't do something I wanted, I don't remember what, and I was going to ask the company but I had a lot on my plate, for now, DiskGenius is great.
Great video .... is WD the best ssd which one you recommend
Always a pleasure my friend, so very happy you stopped by, trusted in me to help you, liked and subbed as well as took a moment out of your day to thank me. It means a ton to me and I am so very happy I could help you. WD is great, but Sabrent, Samsung, Kingston and Patriot make some GREAT drives too.
I need to get with you on which is going to be the best laptop for my international travel. That way I can have the SSD already installed. 😃
sounds good brother, let me know.
If my laptop is gpt i can already clone right? I was thinking of doing a fresh start. Changing hdd to ssd then installing windows. Quick question, if i install windows will it have Microsoft office and chrome browser? Do you have a video of installing from a fresh start? Thank you for your vids. Really helps ☺️☺️☺️
yup, you sure can clone, but I recommend a clean install and I do have a video showing you not only how to do a fresh install but how to create the media, let me know what you think and if you have any other questions: ua-cam.com/video/ayp8TksEtoY/v-deo.html and thanks so much for your kind words and support. If you like these videos, please do make sure to like and subscribe as well, it helps a ton, thank you.
Thank you for the video. I followed each step as-is but when the computer restarts in the Windows PE mode i get an error saying "SystemMigrationInvalid command line parameter error". Do you know how to resolve this? I am doing a NVME M.2 to NVME M.2 migration.
So that I can help, please list the manufacturer and exact model number of the following components:
1. Motherboard - manufacturer and exact model number
2. CPU - manufacturer and exact model number
3. M.2 - Manufacturer and exact model number, if you have any, and how many you have in this system (with each manufacturer and model number)
4. Regular SSD - Manufacturer and exact model number, if you have any, and how many you have in this system
5. Hard Drive - Manufacturer and exact model number, if you have any, and how many you have in this system
6. Was this a clean install of Windows that you upgraded at some point, for example, you had Windows 7 but upgraded to 10 or 11 or did you install 11 and are cloning 11.
7. What version of Windows?
8. This video will help you identify hardware inside your PC: ua-cam.com/video/65ZSiVImJx0/v-deo.html
hi great vidoe
1 question
can i do the opposite?
override a working system with old drive?
i mean to over run the local drive from an external drive
thanks
Please elaborate what you are asking, I dont understand
ih
i want to do the opposite
to clone from another extrenal driver onto the inner drive
to over run it
the opposite
not from local boot partition with windows runing
by extrnal into the pc that run windows
overrun it
@@ThisBytesForYou
The external drive, is it a drive from another computer?
Is the other computer using a different processor, motherboard and graphics card then this computer?
Does that External Drive have windows installed on it and its from another computer, you need to provide me with some context so I can help you.
What about the warning at 6:59 not to install disk genius in the partition where the files are? How would I know that?
That is if you are trying to recover files, did you delete files you want to restore?
Great presentation. My only issue is I don't want to spend $80 for the dial cloning station to use 1x. Is there any other way to plug in the target drive for the clone besides that cloning station?
Thanks bud, glad you enjoyed it. As for the $80, this was just an example, if you are using a desktop, you can just install another drive, the new blank drive, to another SATA port and another SATA power connection and then clone it. On a laptop, you are a little restricted, some laptops have additional bays you can use, but very few. What are you working with and if anything, what is your budget?
It's an HP laptop, budget isn't the issue as much as value. A single use 80$ is more than the SSD drive itself. So I guess the whole process has to be evaluated to see if the cost is worth faster boot times. No matter what comes of that eval your videos are seriously the best I've seen on UA-cam. Thank you for taking the time
You don't have to use that one, it's just what I had on hand, maybe this one off of my Global Amazon Affiliate link would be better for you, but I warn you, I have not tested it myself, so I cannot vouch for it, I can vouch for the one in the video: geni.us/HTLu2 And thank you so much for your kind words and support my friend, it does mean the world to me. If you like my videos, please do consider liking and subscribing, it helps tons and will keep you in the know when I come out with a new video, which is every monday... or I try at least. Thanks again my friend and I really hope this helps.
Hi, I'm new here, I have a question, I'm going to upgrade my whole PC, including a new SSD, but I want to keep my HDD from my current PC. I'm going to do a fresh Windows 10 install on my new SSD. What would happen to all my programs/apps that are stored on my old HDD?, because I have read that they may not work but not sure if that's true. I will unninstall some graphics card drivers and print drivers from the HDD before putting the SSD.
hey bud, you are in good hands, we were all noobs at one point, we had to start some where and I haven't forgot that (I don't use noob negatively), we are a very friendly channel. With Windows, where you install the program isn't just the folder, there are hundreds of registry entries, ini entries that point to where the data is, and scattered files written through out the drive, so there is no clean way to do that. I would recommend a clean install of windows, and all the programs and such and PLEASE make sure the SSD is your boot drive, I recommend to not have any other drive installed when you install windows. Also, if this is new hardware, I highly recommend you use windows 11, its awesome. I have videos here on how to do it all, if you need them, please let me know.
I have the Dell Inspiron 5000 series, can I upgrade to an SSD drive. Please suggest. Thanks
ummm, maybe, what is the service tag number on your dell, its usually on the top of the machine or the back.
Great advise but I can’t get mine to clone results says it can’t clone due to logical sectors do not match destination drive…source disk 512…destination discs 4096….? Will the program disk genius adjust the sectors to match …..
Did you do it just like I showed you?
I have a question when you do migrate system will ur old drive is still work like normal or no?
No
I just used this program to clone my 256mb SSD to a 2TB SSD yesterday. I meticulously followed every step in this video (I knew my PC already used GPT but I still double checked every step). The new drive would not boot when installed via SATA or USB (when I checked that option). I must have erased and restarted the process five times. Then, all of a sudden, it worked. I have no idea why. I didn't do anything different. I plugged in the drive and my PC booted. Everything seems to be working fine now, but just be warned.
sadly that can happen, not sure why either, I have heard of it before but happy I could help with the rest.
I couldent reply to your message there.
And yes i am replacing the dvd drive to a caddy which holds the ssd and goes in the dvd alot. After coverting from the hard disk thats already in there to ssd. And set boot to ssd. Is it best to swap them around for fast boot loads
It is yes since SSDs are faster, this might help ua-cam.com/video/Ih28muags6s/v-deo.htmlsi=LgCHeZwPdpjr9cNb
@@ThisBytesForYou got ya. Ill check that out. Ill be geting my ssd and caddy in a few days. Wish me luck👍
Sounds good my friend, happy I could help, you will that video too, will help you understand the difference
Hey. Great video. I have a question. I want to clone my PC desktop. I recently installed a Sansung 980 PRO 2TB in this PC. Original plan was extra storage. Now I want to clone my windows disk. The old installed SSD is an Intel 750 1TB. Can this be done without removing my newly installed SSD 980?
Glad you enjoyed it, have you thought to try what I show you in this very video but instead of using the cloner, just have both drives in the machine and cloning like I show you?
Samsung has their own drive cloning and migration software for their drives. Easy to use too.
My computer has an SSD with 256gb so i want to upgrade it, but when i open my computer both the SATA and the NVMe slots are occupied, so im kind of lost on which one should i be upgrading, i dont even know which one give me the 256, do you have clue on what i need? I tought since i have 256gb only one of those slots would be occupied
So,... have you watched this video, it answers your question
9:07 why do they both say Local Disk C?
Maybe because that's what it will be after, you can clearly see at 7:12 it had no drive letter yet.
Whats that boot time app you are using
I go over in the video as well as provide links.
just a question, wanted some help
i have a e6540 and wanted to get 2tb samsung 870 qvo in the dvd slot with caddy. while doing migration with samsung tool software from the h.d to ssd. do i keep ssd in caddy or move it to h.d and swap um.
also what diffrence gpt makes then mbr and is it worth doing that befor me doing the ssd thing
Did you watch this video?
@@ThisBytesForYou yes i indeed did. And learnt about gpt and mbr. Great video. After a bit of research i underatood that mbr maxs out on 2tb in 4 bands. While gpt over comes this.
If u could help me understand my obeve question about the ssd if its worth in the caddy or hd slot.
@@sky_fare1836 I don't have any hdds in my system, needless heat and more prone to failure, but if you are low on storage keep it there and add the ssds as well, you can have as many drives as SATA ports in your mchine and m.2 slots.
@@ThisBytesForYou got u. I heard the caddy might be a bit slow to run the ssd in the dvd area. So i was asking if it make a diffrence if i swap um around. I orderd the caddy and the ssd today so will be trying it soon.
And the gpt was the best thing i learnt good thing u helped out there bud i dident no that was a thing.
@@sky_fare1836 wait, which caddy are you talking about?
My laptop has 2 hard drives. One SSD being used for C drive (OS and softwares are installed here) and one HDD used for D drive which only contains personal files. My HDD is failing and I'm attempting to replace it. Do I need to do any extra steps like cloning or any set up after I put the new drive in? I look everywhere but no one is answering this issue. The only instructions are for when the drive with OS is replaced. No source talks about what should be done when the drive without OS is replaced
Your drive is failing, I don't recommend cloning it, I recommend doing a clean install of windows, and once it's installed transfer all your files. You will need to reinstall all the programs and drivers. If you give me the manufacturer and model number, exact model number I can help you find the drivers. This video will help you make the windows 11 install media and installing windows ua-cam.com/video/ayp8TksEtoY/v-deo.htmlsi=okJO4yOuHVPjeenJ
@@ThisBytesForYou thank you for your reply. However, what I mean to ask is, the drive I'm replacing is the data drive, not the boot drive with window(my laptop has 2 drives). Do I need to do any extra steps in that case?
Ahh I see, well only a little extra, check it out ua-cam.com/video/e5kh5h3xg9M/v-deo.html
Hi. I've tried to clone my hdd to my m.2 using acronis. When it's done cloning, I can see that my hdd has 867 gb free capacity while my ssd has 815gb free capacity. Is it normal that they're different after cloning? They're both 1 tb. There's a 52gb difference after cloning. Please help me.
I missed partitioning in this video, sorry about that, but you can look into this video, it should help you: ua-cam.com/video/4BtdMcqwaFg/v-deo.html, just skip forward to the part I talk about partitioning or watch the entire video, good info.
@@ThisBytesForYou Thank you for your response. How can I reach you out? I wanted to send screenshots of my computer, I think I made a mistake cloning it. I couldn’t boot it to ssd and can’t find ssd folder, I opened it in device management and there’s no drive that is unallocated.
Have you watched this video?
Did this migrate the OS or clone it? I think you chose to migrate which isn't cloning, was the OS on both hard drives? It says migrating to during the process too. Basically Migration does not keep Windows on the original drive, its migrates it not cloning it. If something goes wrong during migration you could potentially have issues on the original hard disk.
THANK YOU, I was not sure what migration was, I thought it was the same, I couldn't figure out what the difference was, but it makes sense haha.
@@ThisBytesForYou its says you need to make the destination drive bootable, I dont know if just converting it to GPT in Windows disk manager would solve this. I have only migrated but want to learn to properly clone with disk genius when I have a non essential drive with an OS to experiment on. Might have to do something in the BIOS with the drive beforehand after converting to GPT. If I figure it out and remember you I'll be back sir!🤔
Try what I show you here ua-cam.com/video/4BtdMcqwaFg/v-deo.htmlsi=oP-P6FqOL_Q3MPyr
I think the drive measurements in drive thickness you meant to give are 7.5 mm and 9mm...; certainly not 1.8 or 2.5 mm, as 2.5mm is only 1/10th of an inch!
Which part of the video are you talking about, different drive sizes... Yes 2.5 mm won't fit in a slot meant for 1.8mm, those are different thicknesses for SSDs. Yes 1/10thr of and inches is correct, we are talking thickness to fit in a very tight spot, 1 inch is too thick. Thick, not talking length or width of the drive
@@ThisBytesForYou there are no 1.8 or 2.5 mmm thick SSDs; that is the point
I have to apologize, you caught me as I was waking up for work, I'm a Diva when I wake up, I should learn not to answer as I am getting up early, sorry about that bud you are right, 100%, did I say that in the video?
Was the OS cloned as well on the clone you did..??
Thanks.
Did you watch this video?
@@ThisBytesForYou I did yes.....only reason I ask, is because I saw another video of someone using the same software and they chose System Migration, just need to know if System Migration and Clone Disc are pretty much the same function.
I went through a complete clone here, and it worked fine, Cloning means creating an exact copy of the existing system, and migration generally transfers data or information from one system to another. They are different in the fact that if you are moving to a different motherboard and processor (HAL) from AMD to Intel or visa versa, you want to select Migration, if you are staying on the same system, do a clone.
@@ThisBytesForYou I am staying on the same system, just need to upgrade to a SSD....so I'll do a clone.....many thanks for your help, really appreciate it. 👍
@rikgreen520 I hope you did everything I mentioned about uefi and gpt as well
Can i do the mbr/gpt convert on a storage drive as well?
yes you sure can.
@@ThisBytesForYou i googled it, seems like only 3rd party software can do it... any ideas?

Greetings Sir,
i have correctly create the media for windows10 using rufus to make bootable usb flashdrive. i successfully make a fresh installed windows10 on the 2nd hand laptop.
the problem is, im new on asus strix z390-e gaming mobo bios,
yesterday when pc first powered on, it's suggest to press f1 to continue into bios mode.
then after i load optimized default config at the exit option, i think there's a easy feature "launch efi shell from usb drive" to boot my usb drive to install windows10.
after i click that (launch efi), i get blank screen overtime. until now..
i have tried take out the cmos battery, but no luck.
i put the hdmi on the mobo, no gpu installed. only i-gpu from i7 8086K
If you used Rufus, you did not use the correct method, use the method I show you in the video many people use Rufus and they think they did it right when they use my method it fixes it. You are using the ufi boot, don't use that, use how I show you, chose it as a boot option, stop complicating things. I give you all the tools, if you are using Rufus you are not using the tools I provide. Use different tools, expect different results.
@@ThisBytesForYou pardon sir, the problem is not on installing the windows via rufus or any tools.
the problem occur, that i wrongly click the 'launch efi on usb drive" option in bios at exit. then my screen went blank
Go here dlcdnets.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/LGA1151/ROG_STRIX_Z390-E_GAMING/E14841_ROG_STRIX_Z390-E_GAMING_UM_V2_WEB.pdf?model=ROG%20STRIX%20Z390-E%20GAMING and on the top of page 1-10 they show you how to clear CMOS. Pulling the cmos battery with cables plugged in won't clear anything, this way will. On the rear panel of your motherboard, where you plug in USB and Ethernet there should also be a clear CMOS button. Give that one a try as well. That one will need to have the system plugged in.
@@ThisBytesForYou there's no cables plug in at all, (hdmi, power cable, lan, etc)
free from electricity, take out the cmos battery half day, and clear cmos with jumper the 2pins (clear-c)
@@ThisBytesForYou i think the 2nd hand i buy online, is faulty..
i take the pc to 5 service centre, they show me with different mobo, click the "launch efi on usb drive, nothing happen" it will automaticaly goes into bios setup again.
My boot drive (m.2 nvme) is GPT and my data drive is MBR. Is that okay?
it is, but its best to move everything over to GPT, DiskGenius does that too.
Will this work on pc? Thank you
Yes it sure will. Do you want to clone or reinstall windows?
@@ThisBytesForYou I am trying to clone my hard drive to my new sata SSD. To use my ssd primarily. I don’t know hardly anything about computers.
@@TEEANVEE ahhh ok, just making sure, so yeah this would work fine. Being a desktop, you don't need a cloner, the software with the 2 drives connected should work the same.
@@ThisBytesForYou thank you for the quick response. It is very useful having readily available tech support for free. Will contact you if I have any issues
Always a pleasure my friend, so very happy you stopped by, trusted in me to help you, liked and subbed as well as took a moment out of your day to thank me. It means a ton to me and I am so very happy I could help you.
Mine came up with a bitlocker pop-up. Now i dont know what to do.
Nevermind I disabled it.
Happy I could help ;)
@@ThisBytesForYou the new SSD drive isn't showing the full volume. There's a bunch of unallocated spaced I can't use.

how do you enter bios
There are many different methods, are you using a laptop, if so what is the manufacturer and model number or are you using a desktop, if so what is the manufacturer and model number, or is it a custom built pc, if so what is the manufacturer and model number of the motherboard.
@@ThisBytesForYou i’m using a hp probook 650 G1 laptop the product number is D9S35AV
@@ThisBytesForYoui have hp Probook 650 G1 and my bios menu looks nothing like that and i reset and press f10 and it takes me to HP computer setup
every BIOS is different, but it should somewhat be similar.

How do you clone when the old HDD is already dead and laptop no longer boots up.
If it's dead you cannot, although you can send your drive to get the data recovered but it can cost a few thousand dollars.
@@ThisBytesForYou a computer store here will do it for 200, i guess i should go back to him.
for 200, that means they will use software to recover it, not like real data recovery places, I've had it done before, they also give you a new drive to replace your old drive, well I guess not give you, since you pay so much, but drives with damage, scratched disks, broken disks, dead motors, etc, cant be recovered with software.
Have you tried taking it out of the laptop and putting both disks in a desktop sata port? Then, I think, you should be able to migrate without being booted on the laptops disk from the desktops OS.
his case might be different, since he is cloning from a dead drive, but it won't be bad to try it
So, it looks like you went from a 1TB to a 500GB drive. . Why is that again?
An example of going from one drive to another drive, maybe the 500Gig was faster, maybe the 1TB drive was dying, it could have been any drive, the example was just showing you how it worked. My specific example for you was enabling UEFI in your BIOS.
Yes. So far it all looks good. I have to check the Sony BIOS.
When you enable UEFI you can use GPT
Doesn't exist. Bios does not have Boot List Option Legacy. (That is Sony Laptops for you)
Looks like I will havew to convert this SSD to MBR.
However, I should mention that it does show the RAM and SSD size.
I think I will need to bring this SSD back to MBR. How do I do that?
just delete the partition with the Windows installer, like i show you in the Windows 10 install video and when you install it will be mbr. Notice how I show you in the video.
